What are you doing, Mr. President? I'm just an extra!
Chapter 23 Even a money tree can't withstand this!
Su Feiyan finally closed her laptop.
The group of French executives were berated by her like servants, and in the end they could only nod meekly and agree to revise the contract terms.
She took off the noise-canceling headphones hanging from her ears and casually tossed them onto the table.
The long meeting made her neck a little sore.
She turned her neck, making a soft, cracking sound.
During the meeting, she was completely focused, automatically blocking out all surrounding noise, including someone's inner thoughts.
Now that I've relaxed, that special "channel" has reconnected.
Su Feiyan turned her head and her gaze fell on the sofa.
Lu Li was maintaining an extremely strange posture.
He held the cup of milk tea in both hands, the straw already at his lips, and even half of it was in his mouth.
But he remained completely still, as if his pressure points had been frozen.
His eyes were wide open, staring intently at the small hole on the lid of the cup.
Even the straw was trembling slightly.
Su Feiyan found it somewhat amusing.
What's going on here?
It's just a cup of milk tea, why get so worked up?
Or is it just too delicious to drink?
She did smell a very strong sweet fragrance during the meeting just now.
It smelled of caramel and black tea mixed together, which was quite tempting for her since she hadn't had lunch yet.
Su Feiyan stood up and strode over to the sofa.
The high heels stomped on the carpet without making a sound.
Even after her shadow enveloped Lu Li, he still didn't react.
Su Feiyan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
"He's back to life."
Lu Li shuddered.
Su Feiyan raised an eyebrow.
Why that expression?
She crossed her arms and looked down at him.
"What wrong thing have you done behind my back?"
Lu Li shook his head desperately.
Su Feiyan's gaze fell on the cup of milk tea.
Water droplets are sliding down the cup wall, and the pearls inside look chewy and soft.
She suddenly felt even hungrier.
"Is it good?"
Su Feiyan asked a question.
Lu Li nodded stiffly, then shook his head frantically.
What does this mean? It's both delicious and not delicious?
Su Feiyan had no interest in guessing his riddles; she simply extended her hand.
"Let me have a taste."
This statement is made so naturally, like a wife wanting to taste the snacks her husband is holding at home.
There was absolutely no sense of boundaries between the president and his assistant.
But to Lu Li, this sounded like courting death.
Holy crap!
[Stop messing around, sis!]
Is this something you can drink?
[Take this bite, and you might actually see your great-grandmother waving at you!]
Lu Li's inner voice roared wildly in his mind.
The sound was so loud it almost stunned Su Feiyan.
Her outstretched hand froze in mid-air.
What does that mean?
Did you see Grandma?
What's in this milk tea?
Before she could think it through, Lu Li's thoughts bombarded her like a barrage of bullets.
This is a "Splatoon" special with extra ingredients!
[A powerful combination of senna leaves and chondroitin sulfate can completely shut down your sphincter muscles in just three seconds!]
[If you take a sip of this, even if you're a cold, aloof female CEO, even if you're an ice queen.]
You, too, will have to perform a "waterfall plunging three thousand feet" right here in this office, in front of me!
The scene is too beautiful for me to look at!
You'll definitely kill me to silence me then!
I will be torn to pieces and thrown into the Huangpu River to feed the fish!
Absolutely not!
Lu Li became more and more frightened the more she thought about it.
This is not just about Su Feiyan's face.
This is about Lu Li's life.
If Su Feiyan really drinks this poisoned milk tea and makes a fool of herself...
Once she regains consciousness, the first thing she'll do is definitely kill herself, the only eyewitness.
For my own safety, I absolutely cannot give her this milk tea!
Lu Li subconsciously huddled the milk tea closer to his chest.
It was as if they were protecting some rare treasure.
Su Feiyan's expression changed instantly.
His previously somewhat languid expression turned completely cold at this moment.
A thick layer of frost had formed in those beautiful peach blossom eyes.
Splatoon package?
Sphincter failure?
To be embarrassed in public?
When these words were put together, even Su Feiyan, who was used to seeing all kinds of storms, felt a chill run down her spine.
Someone poisoned it.
Moreover, it was done in such an extremely despicable and disgusting way.
If it weren't for her ability to hear Lu Li's inner thoughts.
If she had actually snatched it and taken a sip just now...
Su Feiyan dared not think any further.
Even if she is a female CEO with a net worth of billions, she is no different from an ordinary person in the face of such a physiologically devastating blow.
Once she gets infected, the image she has painstakingly maintained for over twenty years will collapse in an instant.
What a vicious mind.
Such a despicable tactic.
Su Feiyan's chest heaved violently.
That was because she was angry.
She stared intently at the cup of milk tea in Lu Li's arms.
"Give it to me."
His voice was so cold it sounded like it was being squeezed out from between his teeth.
Lu Li shook his head again.
【We can't give it to them!】
[Giving it away could lead to someone's death!]
[President Su, listen to my advice, you can't handle this good fortune!]
Su Feiyan had no patience to waste words with him.
She went straight for it.
She is currently on the verge of exploding with rage and possesses astonishing strength.
He grabbed Lu Li's wrist with one hand and gripped the cup with the other.
Pull hard.
Lu Li dared not try to take it from her.
If it were to spill and splash onto Su Feiyan, even just a few drops, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He had no choice but to let go.
"President Su! Don't drink!"
Lu Li shouted.
Su Feiyan gave him a cold look.
"Am I that stupid?"
She held the cup of milk tea but didn't put it in her mouth. Instead, she turned and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window.
There was a money tree, about half a person's height, sitting there.
It is lush and verdant.
It was specially chosen by the feng shui master last time, who said it could attract wealth.
Without any hesitation, Su Feiyan lifted the lid of the milk tea.
In that instant, the sweet aroma became even more intense.
Who would have thought that such a vicious heart was hidden beneath this seemingly sweet exterior?
Splash!
The whole cup of milk tea, along with those black tapioca pearls.
I poured it all into the money tree's flowerpot.
The brown liquid quickly seeped into the soil.
Lu Li secretly watched this scene through his fingers.
Poor money tree.
What did it do wrong?
It just wanted to quietly perform some photosynthesis.
[That's great, I got fed a huge amount right away.]
Su Feiyan ignored Lu Li's complaints. She crossed her arms and stared intently at the plant.
The office was eerily quiet.
There was only a slight buzzing sound from the central air conditioning vents.
A minute passed.
Two minutes passed.
Just as Lu Li was wondering if the information given by the system was wrong, or if the money tree had a strong resistance to poison.
Change has begun.
First, the bottom few leaves, which were originally emerald green, turned dull and yellow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then, this withering spread rapidly upwards like a virus.
The leaves drooped down one after another.
The once upright branches began to soften, as if their sinews and bones had been removed.
In less than five minutes, the once vibrant money tree had completely turned into a withered weed, and even the soil in the pot emitted an indescribable sour and rotten smell.
Lu Li gasped.
【hiss--】
[That's incredible!]
He subconsciously touched his stomach, feeling as if he had just escaped with his life.
Su Feiyan looked at the scene before her.
His complexion was beyond just looking bad.
If it had been her who just drank it...
"Who delivered it?"
